Creamy Carrot Shroomy Noods

June 6, 2019 By julia

Before I go on about the how surprisingly creamy this recipe is… I invite you to say the title out loud. It’s just so satisfying. Thanks to @oliviarosepeltier over on instagram for naming this dish:) These Creamy Carrot Shroomy Noods are just that – creamyyyy!! It was a surprise to me, so maybe it will surprise you. Make it to find out.

Not only is this sauce perfect for that springtime ‘get ready for the bikini’ freak out (veggie heavy, low calorie, nutrient dense, high fibre)… but it actually brings that creamy pasta vibe, and an amazing colour.

Just steam some veggies. Sauté some things. Blend it up. Cook that pasta.

This sauce could be used for any kinda of saucy need.

A dip on a platter, a saucy addition to your burrito, a healthy nachos dish… or simply warmed up and eaten with a spoon!!

It’s a throw together kinda meal when you only have a few things to choose from. But remember, just add nooch + miso paste, and anything will taste YUM.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups carrots, roughly chopped

  • 3/4 cup corn, frozen

  • 3/4 cup green peas, frozen

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1/2 onion, diced

  • 2 tsp sage

  • 2 tsp thyme

  • 1 cup mushrooms (fresh cremini or dried oyster or lobster mushrooms, soaked for 15 minutes in water), chopped

  • 1/8 cup miso paste

  • 1/2 cup nutritional yeast

  • 1/8 cup tahini

  • Veggie bouillon cube

  • 400g brown rice or quinoa noodles

  • Fresh sage or basil for garnish

  • Water to blend (start with 3/4 cup)

Directions

  • Bring steamer water to a boil, and place steamer on top with carrots, peas and corn. Steam for 10 minutes
  • Meanwhile, heat another pan up to medium heat. Add the onions and sauté for 3-5 minutes. Add 1 tbsp of water to de-glaze the pan. Add garlic, sage, thyme and mushrooms. Let sauté on low for 5 more minutes
  • Boil water for pasta (you could use the same pot as the steamer – just throw the steamed veggies into your blender) and fill the steamer pot with water. Cook pasta according to directions.
  • Add all steamed veggies to a blender with the miso, nutritional yeast, tahini, boullion cube and 1/2 cup-3/4 cup water. Blend until silky smooth (add more water by the tablespoon if needed).
  • Pour the creamy carrot sauce into the pan with the onions and mushrooms, mix well.
  • Strain the pasta once it’s done cooking, and add the noodles to the pan with the sauce. Mix well.
  • Serve with a garnish of sage or basil, and this Smokey Vegan Parm!

This isn’t just any tofu scramble… it’s next This isn’t just any tofu scramble… it’s next-level creamy and eggy thanks to 2 secret weapons:

🥄 Hummus for texture 
🧂 Black salt (kala namak) for that eggy flava flave

Serve it up with avo, tomato, and a drizzle of hot sauce for the ultimate #MothersDayBrunch moment 🥑🔥

🌱 Tofu Scramble Recipe - from the #hookedonplantsarchives 

Ingredients:
	•	½ large yellow onion, diced
	•	2 cloves garlic
	•	6 white mushrooms, sliced
	•	1 red pepper, diced
	•	1 tsp each: garlic powder, onion powder, paprika
	•	½ tsp turmeric
	•	1 tsp cumin
	•	½ tsp black salt (kala namak)
	•	¼–½ cup nutritional yeast
	•	½ cup hummus (use your fave — or try my Roasted Garlic one!)
	•	1 block medium or soft tofu (~350g)

Directions:
	1.	Sauté onion in a hot pan (no oil needed). Let it brown, then splash with water to deglaze as needed.
	2.	Add mushrooms, garlic, and red pepper. Cook for a few minutes.
	3.	Stir in spices + ¼ cup water.
	4.	Add hummus and mix until incorporated.
	5.	Crumble tofu into the pan with your hands (tiny crumbles = perfect texture).
	6.	Stir everything together and cook for a few more minutes until golden and hot.

Top with avo, tomato slices, hot sauce… or wrap it up in a tortilla 🌯

💌 Save this for your next brunch or breakfast for dinner (the best) and tag @hookedonplants if you make it!

➡️The GoFundMe page is linked in @alohaanimalsanctuary bio.

A few years ago, I had the beautiful experience of volunteering with Aloha Animal Sanctuary, and supporting their team with @complement products to help the volunteers and founders thrive—so they could give their best selves to the animals.

It’s a dream of mine to spend more time physically supporting farm sanctuaries. 
And to have my own one day… 💫 
… to rescue animals like the lucky ones you see here, living out their best lives.
Just putting that out there 🌱✨

💪🏽 The work, love and energy the founders have poured into Aloha is incredibly inspiring, but it comes with its challenges… Funding expenses being the main one. 

If you’ve got even $5 to spare, it could make a huge difference in helping save Aloha.

Since I don’t have my own sanctuary (yet!), the least I can do is share, volunteer, and spread the word.

& look back on the cute animal pics from my few days there.
